[0023] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 The lock body plastic shell 1 includes a connecting portion 10, a thin wall 11 and a movable cover plate 12. The lock body plastic shell 1 is integrally formed. Specifically, the connecting portion 10, the thin wall 11 and the movable cover plate 12 are integrally formed.
[0024] The connecting portion 10 is a plastic plate structure and is mounted on the wire pulling housing 2 by screws. Furthermore, screw mounting holes are provided on both the connecting portion 10 and the wire pulling housing 2.
[0025] The connection between the connecting portion 10 and the movable cover plate 12 is a thin wall 11, wherein the thickness of the thin wall 11 is 0.3 mm to 0.5 mm, and below the thin wall 11 is the movable cover plate 12. Further, the movable cover plate 12 is located at the bottom of the door lock body installation position, and further, the movable cover plate 12 is arranged at the door lock opening wire opening 20 position on the wire housing 2, and is used to block or open the door lock opening wire opening 20.
[0026] In this embodiment, the thin wall 11 structure utilizes the flexibility of plastic, so the movable cover plate 12 rotates around the thin wall 11, and the rotation state can be divided into an open state or a blocked state of the door lock opening wire opening 20.
[0027] Furthermore, when the movable cover plate 12 is buckled at the opening of the door lock opening wire opening hole 20, the movable cover plate 12 blocks the door lock opening wire opening hole 20, and the door lock opening wire opening hole 20 is in a blocked state. In this state, the outer surface of the movable cover plate 12 and the outer surface of the connecting part 10 are in the same plane, which does not increase the space of the lock body and does not affect the matching space of the customer. At this time, the opening wire is inside the lock body, and the movable cover plate 12 fills the gap in the assembly space, that is, fills the door lock opening wire opening hole 20, which can prevent water and dust from entering the lock body and protect the life and performance of the internal movement mechanism.
[0028] When the movable cover plate 12 is separated from the opening of the door lock opening wire opening hole 20, the movable cover plate 12 opens the door lock opening wire opening hole 20, and the door lock opening wire opening hole 20 is in an open state, which is used for detecting the door lock function and installing the door lock opening wire. In this state, an installation space of not less than a° can be provided, wherein a° is defined as the deflection angle of the movable cover plate 12 relative to the connecting part 10. Preferably, the value of a is 70 or above.
[0029] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 A limiting connecting rib 100 is provided on the connecting portion 10 , an end of the limiting connecting rib 100 away from the connecting portion 10 is located within the width range of the thin wall 11 , and the movable cover plate 12 bends and rotates around the end of the limiting connecting rib 100 away from the connecting portion 10 .
[0030] Furthermore, the bending and rotating position of the movable cover plate 12 on the thin wall 11 can be changed by changing the position of the limiting connecting rib 100 away from one end of the connecting portion 10 .
[0031] The movable cover plate 12 of the present structure is provided with two or more sets of clamping structures 3, which are used for clamping the movable cover plate 12 and the wire housing 2 when the door lock opening wire opening hole 20 is blocked. Its form includes but is not limited to the concave part 30 on the movable cover plate 12 corresponding to the convex part 31 on the wire housing 2; or the convex part 30 on the movable cover plate 12 corresponds to the concave part 31 on the wire housing 2.
[0032] Reference Figure 3 The concave portion 30 is a bayonet structure, and an outwardly convex mounting portion is provided at the opening of the bayonet structure, and the mounting portion is U-shaped. In addition, the convex portion 31 is a wedge-shaped structure. When the inclined surface of the convex portion 31 of the wedge-shaped structure hits the horizontal end of the U-shaped mounting portion, the mounting portion deforms, causing the convex portion 31 of the wedge-shaped structure to pass through the mounting portion, and the convex portion 31 of the wedge-shaped structure is located in the bayonet structure, and the horizontal surface end of the convex portion 31 of the wedge-shaped structure is mounted on the horizontal surface end of the U-shaped mounting portion.
[0033] In some embodiments, the clamping structure 3 is arranged in parallel to the outer edge of the movable cover plate 12, away from the thin wall 11. The clamping structure 3 prevents the movable cover plate 12 from escaping from the wire pulling housing 2.
[0034] The movable cover plate 12 is provided with an edge end, preferably, the edge end is located between the clamping structures 3. Further, the wire housing 2 is provided with a limiting protrusion 21, which is used to prevent the movable cover plate 12 from continuing to move in the direction of the wire housing 2 when subjected to external force, and to limit the movable cover plate 12 to a fixed position, so as to avoid problems such as position deviation, abnormal knocking sound, and the movable cover plate 12 coming off. Preferably, the edge 103 is located between two sets of clamping structures 101.
[0035] The lock body plastic housing 1 of this structure has a drain port 13. Specifically, a sufficient gap is maintained between the drain port 13 and the wire housing 2, so that water or other liquid substances that enter the lock body under abnormal conditions can be discharged in time.
[0036] Preferably, the drain outlet 13 is arranged at the door lock installation position, closer to the rear of the vehicle, in order to keep the drain outlet 13 at the lowest point of the semi-enclosed space of the lock body to facilitate the complete discharge of water, especially when the installation angle of the rear door of the passenger car is relatively large.
[0037] Finally, the drainage port 13 is preferably disposed on the lock body plastic housing 1 on the connecting portion 10 , on one side of the movable cover plate 12 .
[0038] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
